Ying Xuanzi had not worried before that he would be unable to nurture Fang Yi, but if Fang Yi kept absorbing at this rate, he feared even the Dao Sect would not be able to support him.
It made Ying Xuanzi reflect on his actions over the years. Had he been too conservative?
Otherwise, if he had occupied more territory, he would not have had to worry about this.
He did not want Fang Yi accusing him later of being unable to provide even the resources he needed to cultivate.
It seemed contacting the Undying Holy Whale Clan would have to be put on the agenda.
Beside him, Ying Xiaoxiao was silent for a while before looking at Ying Xuanzi. "Father, I want to try the Second Origin Art."
"Hmm? But I only just finished deriving it. Why not let a Life Profound Realm elder try it first?"
"It would indeed be safer for a Life Profound Realm elder to try it, but it's also very important for the Nirvana Realm. If Nirvana disciples cultivate this martial art, they might be better able to get through their Nirvana Tribulations."
"That would be a great benefit to our Dao Sect. As Heaven Hall's senior sister, I'm willing to be the one to test it!"
Ying Xiaoxiao spoke calmly.
Ying Xuanzi sighed. "You don't need to compare yourself with Xiao Yi. He's different."
"I'm not comparing myself with him... It's just that the Dao Sect belongs to everyone. We can't leave you and Xiao Yi to shoulder everything."
Ying Xiaoxiao suddenly broke into a smile. "Besides, I believe in Xiao Yi, and I believe in you too, Father."
Ying Xuanzi fell silent for a while, then nodded. "All right, come with me."
Ying Xiaoxiao followed Ying Xuanzi away from the Pill River. Before leaving, she glanced back at its depths, her eyes filled with determination.
Inside the Pill River.
Fang Yi's eyes were half closed when the Great Origin Technique was completed.
The [Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo] origin that had been reborn within him immediately plunged him into an epiphany.
The Great Five Elements Technique, the Thunder Emperor Precious Technique, the Two Scriptures of Space and Time, the Great Origin Technique, and the Heart Demon Thunder Emperor's many inheritances.
The Four Great Mysterious Scriptures, the Supreme Induction Art, and other martial arts like them also began to flow rapidly through his mind.
Driven by this comprehension, the [Supreme Space-Time Heart Demon Heavenly Symbol] still being derived in his Niwan Palace was rapidly being perfected. Meanwhile,
Fang Yi's derivation of the Five Thunders of Heaven and Earth, which had previously run up against a bottleneck, was once again being perfected at a rapid pace.
The Great Five Elements Technique combined with the Thunder Emperor Precious Technique, supplemented by the Heart Demon Thunder Emperor's method, divided the five thunders into inner and outer.
The Five Yang Thunders attacked the body; the Five Yin Thunders struck the heart.
With the blessing of a double [Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo], the questions that had once taken Fang Yi so long to work through became exceptionally clear, and every problem was readily resolved.
An epiphany gushing out like diarrhea feels way too good. Sure enough, double the physique, double the fun!
Just as Fang Yi felt his mind beginning to grow hazy and was about to emerge from his epiphany,
he suddenly found his mind in a place filled with the colors of chaos.
The sensation was like that of a fetus in its mother's womb, so entrancing that he did not want to wake.
"You..."
"No... wait, your Qi, more suitable, more suitable..."
A vast will reached him.
The will had initially been filled with rejection, but in the next moment, the will it gave off was full of doubt.
At last, as though it had made a decision, a strand of Chaos Light appeared. But it seemed wary of something, and the strand was only as thick as a thumb.
In an instant,
Fang Yi's mind rapidly receded. His tightly shut eyes snapped open, and a glimmer of Chaos Light flashed in their depths.
"Supreme Power?"
Fang Yi noticed the thumb-thick strand of Chaos Light coiled in his dantian.
Could this be Supreme Power?
If so...
Could the place I just went to have been the Supreme Land?
The place where the Plane Embryo is?
"Seriously, isn't this Plane Embryo too much of a simp?"
Fang Yi grumbled, recalling that special state.
That immensely grand will had originally been filled with rejection toward him.
That should have been the Plane Embryo's rejection of a nonnative being, but after sensing his double [Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo],
it had turned around and hurried to snuggle up to him, even leaving behind a strand of Supreme Power.
Although it was not much, it still meant one thing.
He had gained the Plane Embryo's acknowledgment ahead of time.
All he could say was that the Symbol Ancestor had thought too much like a laborer.
Sure enough, no amount of effort could compare to one's own special circumstances.
A visiting monk might not necessarily be better at chanting scriptures, but the same could not necessarily be said for a visiting tall, rich, and handsome man.
"I wonder what Ling Qingzhu will think when she senses this power. I really can't wait!"
Fang Yi rose to his feet.
The chain reaction caused by stacking the Great Origin Technique with the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo was even more terrifying than he had imagined.
He had thought he would have to wait until Ling Qingzhu next came and use the Five Emperor Great Demon Seal to obtain more details about the Supreme Induction Art before he could gain further insight into the Supreme.
But he had not expected
that this epiphany would let him master this power ahead of time.
Now he was even more confident of taking down the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace. He hoped Ling Qingzhu would not beg him to let her sense the Supreme when the time came.
"Let's see what this Supreme Power can do..."
Fang Yi looked inward and tried to call upon the Chaos Light.
But he found that the Chaos Light was like a dead fish, completely unresponsive.
"Why can't I use it?"
Fang Yi frowned slightly. Just how was he supposed to use this Supreme Power?
He would puzzle it out later. It was already inside him anyway, and what was inside him was his. At worst, he could just use the Great Five Elements Spacetime Collapse to devour it.
As if I'd indulge you!
"I should be able to attempt a breakthrough now."
Fang Yi put the Supreme Power aside for the time being, planning to study it slowly later, and opened another Universe Bag instead.
The Profound Origin Pills stored inside flew out one by one.
At the same time, a massive black hole appeared behind Fang Yi and swallowed the Profound Origin Pills.
Vast Origin Energy appeared within Fang Yi, but the moment it entered his dantian, it was refined. At the same time, Fang Yi's aura slowly grew stronger.
Three days later.
Violent fluctuations continually poured out of Fang Yi.
His body was scarlet, and from a distance he looked like a bed of glowing coals. Clearly, this was a sign that the Nirvana Tribulation was erupting.
But before the Nirvana Tribulation could erupt, the heat sweeping out from him abruptly subsided.
The tribulation was also nourishment for the Great Five Elements Spacetime Collapse.
The surging fluctuations had initially startled some disciples cultivating in the Pill River awake, and they had thought someone was about to undergo a Nirvana Tribulation.
But then they found that the fluctuations of the Nirvana Tribulation had vanished again.
Could a disciple have failed to pass their Nirvana Tribulation?
Surely not. Who would be reckless enough to undergo a tribulation without being confident?
Just then,
a figure shot into the sky from the depths of the Pill River. Immensely powerful Mental Energy gushed forth, stirring the power of heaven and earth into resonance.
In an instant, dark clouds came rolling together above the Pill River.
"A Wind and Thunder Tribulation?"
"Is a Heavenly Symbol Master undergoing a Wind and Thunder Tribulation? With a phenomenon like this, they have to be at least a Heavenly Symbol Master!"
"Are you stupid? Isn't that the young sect master?"
"I fucking know it's the young sect master, but he's actually a Heavenly Symbol Master?"
Only upon hearing that question did the many disciples who had been alarmed by the Wind and Thunder Tribulation come to their senses, all of them looking astonished.
They all knew Fang Yi's Origin Energy cultivation was strong, strong to an almost terrifying degree.
But they had never heard that the young sect master cultivated both paths!
